Allergy season is coming and my asthma will be aggravated, especially when running. Any suggestions on good cardio that I can sustain and keep up my exercise routine much appreciated. FYI: I use Advair.

Swimming is good. Walking & running are better if you don’t do it first thing in the morning. Allergens are higher in the early morning.

Work into things slowly by building up your lungs and body. You can do any workout, but I would definetly reccommend starting with walking or swimming and getting into higher impact cardio after more training.

Also, tell your doctor what you are doing, and he/she may prescribe an inhaler (albuterol) to alleviate your problems.
